Overview
We currently have opportunities for passionate and ambitious Early Years Practitioners to join our team to ensure the successful running of the nursery.
Our campus offers a safe environment to enrich the children's development – from woodland walks and trips to see the ducks at our pond, to experiencing the energy within our sports village. We offer a safe, caring and stimulating environment where children can learn and develop to their full potential. Every child at the Nursery is seen as an individual, and we support all needs, abilities and interests.
Responsibilities
* Play a key role in assisting the team in providing high quality childcare and education appropriate to the age and stage of development of the children.
* Work to maintain a safe, secure and caring environment.
* Be required to complete tasks in line with the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage.
* Maintain children’s records and carry out assessments, ensuring all policies and procedures are adhered to and implemented in the Nursery.
A core responsibility is planning and providing safe, appropriate, child‑led and adult‑initiated experiences, activities and play opportunities indoors, outdoors and in out‑of‑setting contexts, which enable children to develop and learn. Importantly, you will support the Room Leader acting as a role‑model in supervising and monitoring Nursery Assistants, casual workers, students and volunteers.
* Be a good team player with sound communication and organisation skills.
* Have knowledge and understanding of the EYFS curriculum with the ability to support the development of our children.
* Have relevant qualifications (minimum NVQ Level 3 in Childcare and Education or above).
* Be able to work in a team to observe, assess and plan as a key person.
* Be able to produce written documentation to support the progress of individual children, being sensitive to their needs.
